Over 3,000 large-scale airships formed a huge formation which was 60 km in length and 20 km in width. Such a huge formation was like a huge cloud which covered the sky and the sun. It was hard not to be eye-catching. Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem The huge formation of over 3,000 large-scale airships was 60 km in length and 20 km in width. Such a huge formation was like a huge cloud which covered the sky.
In the sky, without the obstruction of clouds, anyone could see such a huge object moving slowly in the sky from hundreds of miles away without any observation equipment. Of course, it was not difficult for demon knights to discover such an object; especially knights had better eyesight and senses than commoners. Those flying objects had good eyesight, not to mention wing demons.
Additionally, when so many airships were flying in a large formation, all the airships couldn't fly very fast. Additionally, due to the wind direction, all the airships could only fly at a speed of over 50 miles per hour, which was as slow as tortoises for knights.
Like how dogs liked chasing after frisbees, the over 3,000 large airships of Taixia Country had been fatally attractive to wing demons the moment they rose into the air. At the sight of them, wing demons couldn't help but want to shoot down all the airships.
The winged demons were easy to discover, had a large number of winged demons, and didn't fly fast. These winged demons were the best and favorite targets in the air.
Previously, Zhang Tie thought that this task of escorting over 3,000 airships and two corps of Taixia Country out of Xiangshan City would be boring. However, Zhang Tie soon realized that this task was just like waiting for wing demons to come to him. He didn't need to look for wing demons everywhere. As long as he escorted these airships, wing demons would come to him on their own initiative.
It was not an escort task, but a fishing task.
After the airship troop left Xiangshan City for 6 hours, it was already dark. Zhang Tie, who was sitting on the back of the thunder hawk and cultivating the endless true words of the Great Wilderness Sutra leisurely in the air space of dozens of miles around the airships, had found a wing demon knight.
It was not the thunder hawk who discovered the wing demon knight first, but Zhang Tie. No matter how good the vision of the thunder hawk was, it couldn't match that of Zhang Tie's lotus-flower eyes. Additionally, that wing demon knight was very good at hiding. It didn't fly high; instead, it approached them from the woods on the ground.
It was a black iron wing demon knight. That black iron wing demon knight might have guessed that the airships of Taixia Country would be escorted by knight-level powerhouses. However, he didn't know how many knight-level powerhouses were escorting the airships of Taixia Country. Therefore, he just stayed far away from the airships and observed them carefully.
Since you're here, then don't leave.
Zhang Tie knew that a black iron wing demon was nothing serious for him; however, it was a great threat for common fighters even common black iron knights in Taixia Country as it could cause great destruction and casualties. Now that he had seen such a threat, of course, Zhang Tie would not let it go.
At the sight of this wing demon knight, Zhang Tie had the thunder hawk fly over there.
At the speed of 2 times the speed of sound, when the black iron wing demon knight discovered Zhang Tie, it didn't even have time to escape; instead, it could only fight Zhang Tie desperately. However, the fight of a black iron wing demon knight was not interesting at all for Zhang Tie.
In the wild, it only took Zhang Tie less than 2 minutes to knock that black iron wing demon knight out and teleport it into Castle of Black Iron.
Smacking his lips, Zhang Tie flew back to the airship.
…
"What happened?" Long Miao and the other two people were sitting on the gasbags outside the airship. Long Miao was in the middle of the airship formation. The two corps leaders were in charge of one direction at the head and the tail of the airship formation respectively. Zhang Tie was wandering in the periphery. The four people formed a defensive formation to deal with possible emergencies. As the thunder hawk moved too fast, not until the three people saw the battle qi smoke of the wing demon knight rushing into the sky and disappearing soon did they realize what was happening. Therefore, they hurriedly flew towards here.
"It's okay. I've already dealt with a black iron wing demon knight!" Zhang Tie told the three people in a relaxed way.
After exchanging a glance with each other, the three people revealed a bitter smile helplessly before returning to their own positions.
…
Starting from this black iron wing demon knight, this airship formation was like a piece of bloody beef in the sea which constantly attracted sharks. However, as Zhang Tie was on their side, they were safe all the way.
During this process, even Long Miao and the other three people didn't know how many demon knights had Zhang Tie killed. Because since the first demon knight attacked them, Zhang Tie had increased the flying radius of the thunder hawk around the airship formation to 100 miles. Sometimes, Zhang Tie would even fly farther and launch an attack on the purpose of driving away the demon knights in case the thunder hawk found the demon knights in the distance. In this way, the demon knights who wanted to approach the airship formation would always be discovered by Zhang Tie and his thunder hawk from at least 200 miles away.
Long Miao and the other three people only remembered that demon knights' battle qi tornadoes and battle qi totems appeared once and twice respectively over 200 miles and over 400 miles away from the airship formation in the last three days. Besides, the three human knights who guarded the airship formation didn't see any other demon knight within 60 miles away from the airship formation.
In order not to arouse the attention of more human knights, demon knights who had infiltrated into the territory of humans would not release their battle qi tornadoes and battle qi totem in each battle. Some demon knights would retreat when they found the arrival of human powerhouses. Therefore, Long Miao and the other three people mumbled that Zhang Tie might have driven away or killed 4 demon knights over the past 3 days, one of which was an earth demon knight.
As for Zhang Tie, his achievement over the past 3 days was enough for him to promote to 9 change realm of earth demon knight easily. Because he killed 3 earth demon knights over the past 3 days. In the name of escorting the airship formation, he swept all the demons from Xiangshan Prefecture all the way back to Helan Prefecture …
'I've not imagined that I could make such a great achievement only after coming out of the underground space for a few days. As long as I kill one more earth demon knight or some more black iron demon knights, I'm sure that I could promote to a shadow knight within this year.'
Zhang Tie sighed with emotions about such a high speed of promotion, 'Purgatory Samsara Method is too terrifying in the holy war. This secret method is forcing me to promote to a shadow knight rapidly …'
On December 28th, the 904th year of Iron Calendar, after leaving Blackwater Base over 4 months as a knight scout, Zhang Tie returned to Blackwater Base once again …
